Ahhhh, it was a beauty of a day :D Took mine out and washed it. Didn't drive it though, don't want to get that salt dust on the frame :jester
Here in Bradford (One Hour North of Toronto) it was 10 Deg Celcious. Not sure what that is in Deg. F. I think thats around High 60's.

Dwayne: Use the old Bob & Doug Mackenzie method of metric conversion: Double it & add 30. 10*2=20 plus 30 = 50 degrees. It's actually right on for that temp. Works for beer too. a six pack is 6+6=12 plus 30 = 42 metric beers :D

10 degrees C works out to be about 50 degrees F. It felt much warmer than that in the sun.

Was able to work on the car out in the driveway, and take it for a break in drive after I got the engine started. Timing for this weather could not have been any better. It won't be too much longer before we can be out everyday in Michigan. :cheers:

Yep! And just when I thought I'd suffer from withdrawal! Drove it Sat., Sun. and now today to work! But I guess it'll go back in storage tonight unless the weather changes (State Motto: Don't like the weather? Wait 5 minutes).

Its always a nice clear day to drive here 98% of the time. "Phoenix :yesnod: :chevy !!!!" Now all I need is that dual AC unit for the Summer. Maybe Ill set it up as a His and Hers control unit :jester .
